saint lard Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 22nd - plymouth 23rd - charlton 24th - saints I am fairly confident we will finish bottom I too agree,unfortunately.
1976_Child Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 The FA will rule that because we are so **** we should take all three relegation spots.
JustMike Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 22nd - plymouth 23rd - charlton 24th - saints I am fairly confident we will finish bottom yep thats my 3 also
hasper57saint Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 Saints Lowe Wilde. Need I say more (Last week I didn't think we would but after todays debacle we will be the strongest Team in the League as we will be holding up all the others from 24th)
Thedelldays Posted 14 February, 2009 Author Posted 14 February, 2009 yep thats my 3 also i always maintained that plymouth will do very well to stay up... sadly, I thought we had ebough to stay up ourselves..
Mole Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 I'd put money on us finnishing bottom. As to the other two i don't know as i'm sure all the other clubs in the mix are good enough to put up a fight.
sidthesquid Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 My first prediction is.....................................Southampton My second prediction is....................................................Southampton My third prediction is..........................................................................Southampton
Sheff Saint Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 This season 3 ex Premiership teams will go down: 22nd between Watford, Norwich and Barnsley 23rd Charlton 24th Saints Agree. Think Plymouth have (just) enough points on the board.
saints_is_the_south Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 22nd. Barnsley 23rd. Charlton 24th. Saints
saintwarwick Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 22nd, Watford 23rd, Barnsley 24th, Charlton I live in hope
John Cool Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 (21st Southampton) 22nd Charlton 23rd Watford 24th Plymouth
buctootim Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 (edited) 19th Saints 20th Watford 21st Charlton 22nd Plymouth 23rd Crystal Palace 24th Barnsley Edited 14 February, 2009 by buctootim Barnsley, not Grimsby. I got the grim up north places mixed.
gjphilsaint Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 19th Saints 20th Watford 21st Charlton 22nd Plymouth 23rd Crystal Palace 24th Grimsby is this league 2 (2012)?
Mole Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 Bookies prices: Charlton Athletic 3/10 Southampton 4/9 Norwich City 15/8 Plymouth Argyle 2 Barnsley 5/2 Watford 11/4 Nottingham Forest 11/2 Blackpool 6 Doncaster Rovers 6 Derby County 9 18/1 Bar
buctootim Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 is this league 2 (2012)? Mebbe. Not 2010 tho.
David Strover Posted 14 February, 2009 Posted 14 February, 2009 22nd - Plymouth Argyle 23rd - Norwich City 24th - Southampton This is obvious. Plymouth Argyle have won one match in the last fourteen - same as us - guess who it was against?
Mr X Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 The FA will rule that because we are so **** we should take all three relegation spots. lol its starting to look that way even charlton are starting to win games
Whitey Grandad Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 OK, let's try and look at it objectively for a moment: we're 4 points behind Norwich who are 12 goals better off, so we need to win at least two games more than them by the end of the season. With a real manager who could instil a proper discipline and sense of purpose then we might have had a chance. As things stand, we're doomed. I have a seaking suspicion that Charlton could suddenly get a couple of good results so I would say Saints, Watford, Norwich from the bottom up.
LostBoys Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 I would not like to predict 3rd from bottom as it could be one of four but I think we will be bottom with Charlton above us both with 10 points adjusted because of administration
Nineteen Canteen Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 24th Charlton - a 2-0 win over anyone but Plymouth would suggest a turnaroud in form but it's merely a blip. Soon be back losing. Poor manager, bigger debts than us and even more reliant on youth. 23rd Plymouth - Can't buy a win and surprising they stick with Sturrock although difficult call with his illness. Regrettably, managing a football team and suffering from such a wasting disease is not compatabile and I have nothing but admiration for the bloke and the club for sticking by him but I think that honourable loyalties will be their downfall. Pity because they are IMO one the league's good guys. 22nd Norwich - Brian Gunn or Mark Wotte for a manager? Survivors - Barnsley, Southampton and Watford. Saints have played two tough fixtures and played with some desire and purpose and were unlucky not to get at least a point each from our last two games. Whilst our next two home games look tough if we can get 2pts by playing as we have done with the way Wotte is developing their playing method we can look to start getting the 6 wins v. Ipswich (A), Derby (H), Blackpool (A), Charlton (H), Palace (H), Sheff W (A). It's also not inconcievable we can get results draw or win v. QPR (H), Burnley (H), Forest (A). Defeats looked booked for Birmingham (A), Wolves (A). If by the final whistle of the Derby game we haven't won at least one match our fall back options will be decidedly limited but at the moment there is plenty to remain positive about with the changes Wotte's management style appears to be bringing. One caveat I don't understand why McGoldrick stayed on and Saga came off today but he made the right call with dropping Lallana so assume there was something not obvious to the rest of us. It was strange but not quite Burleyesque bizarre.
Mole Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 at the moment there is plenty to remain positive about with the changes Wotte's management style appears to be bringing. You must be a Skate saying something as ridiculous as that.
St Landrew Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 (edited) Norwich Charlton Saints In that order. I'm pretty convinced SFC will finish bottom too. The others might dig themselves out of the crap - anything's possible..! Except the inevitable probability of a second relegation, for this club, in 5 seasons under the same chairman and hangers on. Useless..! Hang your heads in shame..! EDIT: If it wasn't so bloody appalling for us, I might have some sympathy spare for Norwich and Charlton. They're practically in the same boat. But as I say, they might save themselves. On form, we're as good as gone. Edited 15 February, 2009 by St Landrew
um pahars Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 You must be a Skate saying something as ridiculous as that. My money is still on Flashman/The Bear/Sundance/nineteen being Corp Ho.
The Majestic Channon Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Norwich ( bryan gunn ) Saints ( Mark twot ) Charlton
SaintBobby Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Bookies prices: Charlton Athletic 3/10 Southampton 4/9 Norwich City 15/8 Plymouth Argyle 2 Barnsley 5/2 Watford 11/4 Nottingham Forest 11/2 Blackpool 6 Doncaster Rovers 6 Derby County 9 18/1 Bar Christ...where are these odds quoted? I'm tempted to remortgage my house and put it all on Saints going down. Likelihood is I make £100,000. Alternatively, I'm rendered homeless but ecstatically happy (and surprised)!
Dicko Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Christ...where are these odds quoted? I'm tempted to remortgage my house and put it all on Saints going down. Likelihood is I make £100,000. Alternatively, I'm rendered homeless but ecstatically happy (and surprised)! Saints are currently 4/9 with Corals This is the best price by far, so probably won't last long
SaintBobby Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Saints are currently 4/9 with Corals This is the best price by far, so probably won't last long Thanks, I'll put as much cash on as Corals accept! My predictions for the drop are Saints, Norwich and Barnsley. I think Charlton might get out of it.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Saints is the only team that I would put money on to go down right now - but I will not because (a) I would never bet against my team and ... (b) all bookies think that way and the odds are rubbish.
SNSUN Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Unless we can miraculously find form, we'll finish bottom. Not that I think we'll stay up, but if we can string a couple of wins together then we won't be propping up the league. My prediction is Saints 24th, Charlton 23rd and 22nd could be between Donny, Norwich and Barnsley.
slickmick Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 24th Charlton - a 2-0 win over anyone but Plymouth would suggest a turnaroud in form but it's merely a blip. Soon be back losing.

It was strange but not quite Burleyesque bizarre. If only, if we can win our next home game then the voodoo wil have been broken, you never know. That next home game will be the one that tells me if we have a chance or not.
saintjay77 Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 22nd, Watford 23rd, Barnsley 24th, Charlton I live in hope Im thinking similar to this. Only Plym will be in the mix while I think Watford might survive. By the sounds of it we played well enough for a result yesterday so I will carry on hoping that the results will follow in time to save us.
Thedelldays Posted 15 February, 2009 Author Posted 15 February, 2009 plymouth are ****ed..they always have been with sturrock in charge in the CCC..it was only a matter of time before they came down here with us.. he is STILL yet to do anything of note outside league 1
Whitey Grandad Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Saints is the only team that I would put money on to go down right now - but I will not because (a) I would never bet against my team and ... (b) all bookies think that way and the odds are rubbish. The odds only reflect the money that has been placed and are not necessarily the probability of the events in question happening.
SaintRobbie Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 Saints WILL go down in last place. It's traditional under Lowe. Rest... dont care really.
aintforever Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 (edited) Agree with the first poster, though I think it will be close between plymouth and Norwich for the final spot, Saints and Charlton will be down long before the final day. 22nd Plymouth 23rd Charlton 24th Saints At the moment we are in a false position, we've lost to too many crap teams at home. When the pressure increases away wins will become harder to come by and the young players will not be able to handle it home or away. It's all about how you handle the pressure at this stage, as you get towards the end of the season the pressure doubles in each game. Our young players havn't been able to handle the pressure of playing at home even when the games didn't mean that much. Edited 15 February, 2009 by aintforever
corsacar saint Posted 15 February, 2009 Posted 15 February, 2009 We will finish bottom, who goes with us who cares. Before the season started I thought we would come 15th.[ Before Lowe made himself - D.O.F]
LostBoys Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 A close run thing between Norwich and Plymouth but probably Norwich - Saints bottom and Charlton just above. Interesting if it wasn't so heartbreaking that it is likely that all three clubs to be relegated are recent 'premiership' clubs
slickmick Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 Our only hope is for a couple of other clubs to enter administartion before the seasons end.
bug187 Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 Lets face it. We are going down. Down down down down. Will be years before we see top flight football again.
West End Saint Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 I think Dell days is right about us finishing bottom the Donny & Forest games at home did it for me and since those games I have accepted that we will go down what a difference 6 points in them games would have made but alas it is not to be and I now think we will suffer that ultimate shame of finishing bottom. I think Charlton & Barnsley will go down with us. UTS Lowe out
Papa Shango Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 24th Saints 23rd Charlton 22nd Barnsley We will be relegated well before the last day, and will probably only win about 3 or 4 more games for the rest of the season.
ottery st mary Posted 16 February, 2009 Posted 16 February, 2009 As previously mentioned. Saints to fill all three relegation positions for being so dire all season.
